August is nearly over, and the coaches of Ljubljana Fencing Club have already drawn up a plan for the season starting in September!
Before the season starts (on Monday, 19 August), our keenest competitors will head to Pokljuka for 7 days. During this time we'll prepare them as well as we can for the coming season – they'll have fitness and fencing training and, if they behave, some free time to have fun.
Since we opened Ljubljana Fencing Club, the number of members has grown steadily – so much so that this year we'll have TWO new groups.
Training starts on Monday, 3 September 2018 – please bring a completed registration form (in Slovenian) to training!
The BEGINNERS group (Tuesday 4:45–6 pm and Friday 5–6:15 pm) is for all children aged 7 to 14 who are interested in the sport.
This year we've also decided to offer fencing to younger children – we're introducing a FENCING NURSERY for children aged 4 to 7 (Fridays at 4 pm).
All our "old" fencers will mostly train on the same timetable – given how much they've learned in recent years, we'll no longer group them only by experience but also by age: the YOUNGER COMPETITORS (roughly 9–13 years) will train on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 4:45 to 6 pm,
and the OLDER COMPETITORS (roughly 13–18 years), as last year, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 6 to 7:30 pm.
And of course we haven't forgotten the adults – all adults, regardless of previous knowledge and experience, are welcome every Monday and Wednesday from 8 to 9:30 pm.
